France uses a multi-regulator approach to the EU AI Act, with DGCCRF as the single point of contact, CNIL for data protection AI, and sector authorities for their domains. France 2030 positions the country as a sovereign AI leader. The EU AI Act applies in full.
French organisations are subject to the full EU AI Act obligations, including prohibited practices (from February 2025), GPAI model rules (from August 2025), transparency obligations (from August 2026), and high-risk AI conformity requirements (from December 2027 for Annex III, August 2028 for Annex I). The DGCCRF acts as France's single point of contact; sector regulators including CNIL, ACPR, and domain-specific authorities handle enforcement in their areas.
